Very healthy representation in the highest levels of government and corporate leadership
Highest income level, even higher than Jewish and Chinese people
High levels of capital ownership
All stereotypes against Indian Americans are similar to the ones against white Americans, not really that bad (rich, smart, business savvy)
Less hate crimes than POC, probably less than Jewish people too
Racism against Indian Americans specifically is pretty low, lower than Jewish people. Obviously the attitude towards those from the motherland and commonwealth countries are a different matter
Identity very homogenized and white Americanized like Irish, Italians, Jewish people, east Asians to an extent
Having experienced situations with Indians and the American south, seeing the interactions, and talking with people afterwards…
I’m gonna say no.
Not any time soon unless we make that revolution.
Not Christian enough. Literally the first whispers behind their back were about their religion. It’s weird to me, and I imagine to you too, that people care to that or any extrent, but sadly enough still do.
Too brown. And like others have said while whiteness can’t be reduced solely to skin tone, but it does rely on it.
Those stereotypes you mentioned, which are still problematic, weren’t even applied or thought of as far as I could tell. The stereotypes people have are typically far nastier than that.
You may say the south is not reflective of the rest of the county, and maybe. But in my travels and disappointments across the US, in cities and the country, I’ve found the Mason Dixon line goes pretty far north. Even up north people are still nasty, sometimes it’s subtle to me (but not to those experiencing it) . Down south it’s even more explicit and obvious.
